Tyrese Haliburton is no stranger to big moments.
Haliburton's 21-foot jumper with 0.3 of a second completed an epic 15-point fourth quarter Indiana Pacers comeback over the OKC Thunder, 111-110, in Game 1 of the NBA Finals.
HALIBURTON WINS GAME 1 FOR THE PACERS.

For the man himself, the 25-year-old superstar summed up his latest heroics with just five words.
“It’s gotta be the shoooeeesss,” Haliburton tweeted.

Fittingly, the two-time All-Star unveiled his new signature shoe, the HALI, just in time for the Finals.
Indiana Fever and WNBA star Caitlin Clark, who is currently rehabbing a quad injury, had a rather funny response on Haliburton’s clutch heroics in full display anew.

Five-time NBA champion and Lakers legend Magic Johnson couldn’t help but felt stunned.

Hall of Famer and three-time champion Dwyane Wade posted a live reaction on X, formerly as Twitter, about the game-winning sequence.
As Haliburton drained the cold-blooded basket, Wade jumped out of his chair and shouted: “"Superstar, superstar, superstar!"
“SUPERSTAR! SUPERSTAR!”
